Mathematics Materials Collections 2019 Year-End Model Spring Assessment Window Dynamic Learning Maps® (DLM®) testlets sometimes call for the use of specific materials. The Testlet Information Page (TIP) for each testlet identifies these materials. Sometimes materials are required and cannot be substituted, but substitutes are allowed in most cases. If a testlet requires materials, the TIP will state the specific materials mentioned in the testlet and describe their attributes so that test administrators can find appropriate substitutions. For more information about substituting materials, see the TEST ADMINISTRATION MANUAL section titled Teacher-Administered Testlets.

Since the DLM system uses adaptive delivery to assign a linkage level for each testlet, the system provides the TIP when each testlet is assigned. Therefore, the exact materials needed in order to assess each student are unknown prior to the opening of the spring testing window.

The list below contains materials commonly needed in mathematics testlets and gives test administrators more opportunity to prepare for the mathematics alternate assessment prior to the opening of the testing window. The tables in this document summarize lists of materials per grade level for general testlets and, where appropriate, for students who are blind or have visual impairments. Materials may be substituted unless the TIP specifically states “No substitutions allowed.”

Hints for using this list:

• Look at the whole list for each grade and find materials that can meet multiple purposes. Note the types of materials mentioned more than once.

• Find materials that already exist in the classroom or are easily found in the school building. • Pick materials that are familiar to the student. • Remember that in most cases materials can be substituted as long as they have the same

attributes as those on the list. Examples of possible substitutions are found in the table below. • Materials substitutions are listed for individual testlets on the corresponding TIP. • First and foremost, your student’s safety should be the primary concern when choosing

materials or substitutions.

Example Materials Description Possible Substitution two sets of identical objects packaged together (packs of crayons, pencils, markers)

use two identical packs of flash cards

two objects that are the same size, and one object that is smaller than the other two

use two flash cards that are the same size and a smaller playing card

• Lists by grade of common materials used in mathematics testlets. • Lists by grade of common materials that may be used to administer testlets to students who

are blind or have visual impairments. Some mathematics testlets are special forms designed for students who are blind or have visual impairments, while others are general testlets that have been adapted to make them more accessible.
